Goddess Lakshmi-Watercolor Painting
Goddess Lakshmi-Watercolor Painting

Lakshmi is the Vedic deity of the Hindu Religion that presides over resources. Goddess Lakshmi is the wife of Vishnu, who is responsible for the preservation aspect of the existential cycle. She is aptly depicted in this watercolor in all Her heavenly glory. The resplendent silks of Her saree are set off by the matching rubies and emeralds on Her ornaments. Streams of pearls cascade down Her torso, touching the elaborate Kamar band that wraps around Her gracious hips. Her gold neckpiece goes well with the chunky, studded gold on Her four wrists, but even more so with the gorgeous crown on Her head. In Her left anterior hand, she holds a richly adorned pot with a lid to protect the wealth within. She is the very picture of plenty.

Every time Her husband has been incarnated as Vamana, Parasurama, Rama, and Krishna, she has accompanied Him as Kamala, Dharani, Sita, and Rukmini. Hence, she has come to embody the especially feminine virtues of beauty and devotion. She is as inseparable from Him as knowledge from intellect, coherence from words, and dharma from righteousness. A divine sense of calm is writ across Her supremely beautiful brow, the rest of Her form as rubescent as the lotuses She holds up in Her tender (posterior) hands. The right anterior hand is the ashirvaad mudra, which with Her chosen devotees amongst the most fortunate of our realm of existence. Her four arms stand for dharma (ethics), artha (wealth), kama (pleasure), and moksha (deliverance).

While the Puranas describe the birth of Goddess Lakshmi as the daughter of the sage Bhrigu and his wife Khyati, she is deified as having been born from the oceans during the all-important Samudra Manthan. Artist Kailash Raj depicts Her as such, emerging from the tempestuous waters. Complex brushstrokes in limited shades and tints of blue illustrate with great skill the prevailing turmoil in the heavens. Note the graduated halo that surrounds Lakshmi - the gold glow of knowledge, followed by the pink ringlet of beauty, and finally the pristine layer symbolic of ethical purity.

Narasimha with Lakshmi - The fourth Avatar of Lord Vishnu

Lord Narasimha is worshipped as a fierce avatar of lord Vishnu who incarnates with a human torso and lower body with a lion face and claws. It is said that demon Hiranyakashipu had gained special powers by which he could not be killed during the day or night, inside or outside the house, neither in sky nor on land nor in heaven, by any weapon, and by man, god, asura or animal. Therefore, to kill this demon, Lord Vishnu took Lord Narasimha avatar and killed the demon on his laps, thus countering each and every gifted power of the demon.

This brass sculpture is carved in extreme preciseness and perfectly beautifying chisels with Narasimha settled in lalitasana on multilayered coils of Sheshnaga etched in extensive pattern and has its nine hoods spread out at the top from behind like a parasol. Goddess lakshmi (his consort) sits on his lap with the feet resting on an outgrown lotus flower. Both the deities are adorned in royal garbs that charmingly veil their body forming alluring pleats at the legs and jewels that gracefully enhance their personality also a finely sculpted long flower garland focusing on sculptor’s preciseness. The crowns fitted to their heads are carved in mesmerizing patterns having a multilayered pointed temple top.

Both the deities have their anterior hands in abhaya and varada mudra respectively and Narasimha’s posterior hands carry his iconic weapons, Chakra and Conch respectively. The faces are sculpted in finite magnificence accentuating their innate natures of anger and calmness respectively; the features of fiery eyes, one who causes terror by roaring from his wide mouth, thick eyebrows and layers of hairs around his face are sculpted in realistic manner.
